Hello JAMIROQUAI Club Members,

As promised yesterday, here's a download to the performance of

I also uploaded this live vid on my Multiply site for those who want
to watch it, forgive the low quality of the video, Pepela cut it down
so the size of the file could be smaller:

And now, here's a cut n paste of Pepela's live report from the gig,
MASSIVE thanks to Pepela for this and for having such a great time!:

The other 2 girls are also fans, and they do come here sometimes))
Nika (the one in Adidas) and Jenya.

So, while my TWM file is uploading, I'll write my review))

After Nika met me in the airport in St.Petersburg, we couldn't decide
what to do next.
We had 2 possibilities: to go to Audi show and try to get there
without invitations or to go only to Royal Beach club.
After some negotiations we decided to try to get to the Audi show at
Ledovy palace.
But as far as you may guess, we didn't manage( Too much security(( One
girl from Audi wanted to let us in, but she couldn't because after one
security "level", inside there were 2 more and she'd be fired( Also we
tried to give money to security - it didn't work out also and nobody
wanted to take us inside of those who were with invitations Evil or
Very Mad
So we went to Royal Beach.
We've had a table for 6 persons in VIP area, quite close to Jay and
company, so we could see everything))
After 3 hours of waiting came Jay and the band and their team. Before
that a guy who was responsible for that party, told everyone: no cams,
no flashes, no autographs, don't annoy our star....Actually not quite
polite, because it was written on our invitations that you'll be able
to take pics and sign of Jay. But we weren't supposed to give up)))
Of course, when Jay came, we attracted his attention and he noticed us
but security didn't want us to let go to Jay, so we wrote a little
message for him and one boy from their team (but russian one) promised
to pass it to Jay. I don't remember what was in that message,
something about beaing their fans for a long time, that we came here
from Moscow etc and we'd appreciate if he'd picture with us and sign dvd))
But when that guy was ready to give him our message, he ran to the
stage to sing TWM (by the way several moments he's been just staring
at me and Nika and we're just SURE that he sang for us))) Actually we
were thankful to that band (anatomy of soul) who sang Jamiro-covers,
coz I don't think that he'd perform, he was quite tired after Audi
gig, but that band was so damn awful that he couldn't stand them
ruining VI and asked all guys from Jamiroquai (but not Sola-because
there were no percussion) to join him)) But in the middle of TWM he
called Sola and gave him ....how it is called...jingles....

And that was Sola's solo))) He even sang a little))
When they finished their little gig, Jay came back to his table, and
we again attracted his attention, but this time he was closer and
security couldn't prohibit him to listen to what his fans are saying
(not shouting))))
So I asked Jay if he could sign dvd, he said sure, no problems, found
marker and while he was signing I asked if he could take pictures with
us) Of course he could)) While looking for our cam we chatted a
little, he promised new album in 2009, I passed him hello from all
Jamirotalk, and he passed it you back))
After that, satisfied, we went to the dancefloor))
But not quite satisfied, we wanted to talk to the band too)) At first
in WC we met one girl on back-vocals (shame on me, I can't remember
her name)) and told her that here are only 6 real fans, including
Nika's mother)))
So we saw Derrick and asked him to take pics with us) Of course he
didn't mind, took us to their VIP zone, we chatted a little, I again
passed all your hellos)))))
Then we asked to call Sola to take pictures, Sola was also very very
nice and glad and a little guys were surprised that we're not Jay's
fans but Jamiroquai fans)))
They also promised new album in 2009 and told us not to leave the club
yet because Jay and all of them wanted to go to the dancefloor))

By the way, almost forgot to mention, that Jay came with his girl,
Masha (she's russian), but he didn't spend much time with her, and the
way she acts is......well....escort-kind of girl, what can I
say.....poor Jay.....

She's on the left

So after on the dancefloor came Jay, showed everything he can, with
plastic yellow glove on his head)))) after there was a little contest
who's cooler men's team or women's))) Of course men with jay and
Derrick and the others were amazing)))

Later when we were already leaving, we didn't plan it, just a
coincidence that jay and team were leaving club the same time, Jay
noticed Nika's mother, stopped, Hugged her and began whispering
something on her ear)))))) She was shocked and remembers only nice and
crazy))) Then he gave us kisses and left, sat on a footstep in the
snow, and started talking to the dog......

When we were already getting into the cab, we saw Derrick, told him
bye bye and "see you in Madrid", he was shocked that we'll also go
there and shouted wait wait wait, what's your phone number))))) After
that he stopped us and invited us to go with them to the hotel to have
some drinks, but Nikas mother told thank you, no and we left(((((

So here's the end of story)))))))

Well, it looks like we might not see a new Jami album until 2009,
right from the mouth of JK. But I still have a feeling we COULD see
at least a single by the end of 2008, and would be something at least
to tide us over! Massive thanks again to Pepela at Jamirotalk and see
you all again soon with more news! Cheers!
